Hindu University of America

Hindu University of America seeks to nurture in its students a life-long love for learning and a quest to live a life in harmony with the world, that aligns their pursuit of critical thought and academic excellence with spiritual insight and inner development. It is the University’s aspiration that regardless of their culture of origin, students are empowered to think critically, inquire into who they are, search for an expanded sense of purpose and meaning in their lives, and explore the possibilities for constructive social engagement, making a difference and being of service to humanity.

Hindu University of America welcomes all qualified students seeking to pursue knowledge and understanding, personal and societal transformation, as well as research and publication, in many diverse areas of study. Those who already have exposure to Hinduism through their own heritage will find the university to be an excellent source to acquire an enhanced understanding of their identity, culture and its unique world-view, while newcomers to Hindu thought will find a thorough and accessible introduction to a seemingly esoteric way of life that is simultaneously both ancient and contemporary. The university strives to explore the knowledge systems of Vedic origin encompassed by the term Hinduism in conversation, with contemporary challenges and opportunities facing humanity, in realms such as religion and theology, natural, human social sciences, economics and politics, education, the fine arts and literature, and more.
